I have a lot of black plastic trim on Mini Cooper can this be sealed with Opti-Seal? Could you use something like Back to Black on the trim then seal that in with Opti-Seal? Any Suggestions welcomed. :lol:

I would just clean it and then use the OptiSeal on them without any dressing. I've never tried it on trim but I know from Ron trying it that it should work just fine.

I've used it on exterior trim and it seems to work just great. As I haven't had the product long I can't comment on durability but I am sure it will be as good or better than most gels.
It does not seem to watermark or streak which is also important.

On the Rav4 I did Opti-Seal looked good on the trim but on my wife's TSX I need to try the Poli-Seal / Opti-seal combo. Mike...
